In Today’s Edition of “Who Dressed Him?!”: Who Wore It Better?

Deron and Kobe showed up for Game 4 in what appeared to be, at first glance, matching outfits.

Upon closer look, there are so many ways that Deron’s outfit wins.

1. Jeans > Shiny navy satin pants. Especially on men. And especially on men who don’t live in the 80s.

1a. Jeans that are the right length on the wearer > Shiny navy satin pants that are too long.

2. Leather jacket (which is an actual jacket) > Velour zipup with off-center zipper and leather sleeves masquerading as leather jacket (I realize the off-center zipper could be a design thing, but in this case the garment in question looks like a factory reject with a cut-up tag purchased at an outlet store somewhere in Asia).

3. As has been covered on this site already, only d-bags wear shades indoors.

Much like Game 4, this one was not a close contest. (Too soon?)

Edit: C points out one more way Deron’s outfit wins–Kobe appears to still have his photoshoot outfit on underneath his faux leather jacket.
